Lectures in Jerusalem

Musalaha Lectures

Musalaha hosts groups at our office in Jerusalem for lectures throughout the year. Dr. Salim Munayer and other staff members provide analysis on topics relevant to our work and context. We invite people of all backgrounds to explore the dynamics of reconciliation among Palestinians and Israelis.

Please send us a message through the form below if you are interested in setting up a lecture for your group. Typical lecture topics include:
